In A Veiga de Logares, hiking, heritage and forest landscapes can be explored through specific trail and place connections. The PR-G 139 leads from the church of A Veiga de Logares into a wooded river valley; other churches are associated with the Camino Primitivo or the parish. These different connections give you various ways to organise your travel interests.

Hiking on the PR-G 139

The PR-G 139 begins at the church of A Veiga de Logares. From there, the route heads downhill to the northwest into the valley of the Logares River, which is characterised by deciduous forest. The starting point, compass direction and landscape features give you a concrete idea of the route: from the church down into a wooded valley. If you choose a hike based on its landscape, these details are useful points of reference.

Remarkable yew trees grow along the trail at San Martín de Robledo. The PR-G 139 also highlights the Igrexa de San Martin de Robledo for hikers. The church is in the village of the same name, within the parish of A Veiga de Logares (Santa María). This brings a natural feature and a sacred building together in one location: you can consider this section in terms of both its yew trees and the highlighted church.

Churches and heritage

The churches have different connections to trails. The Igrexa Parroquial Santa María de Veiga de Logares is on the Camino Primitivo; the Igrexa de San Martin de Robledo is highlighted for hikers on the PR-G 139. In Braña, the Capela de San Caetano is listed as heritage within the parish of A Veiga de Logares (Santa María). This distinction helps you make a choice: the three churches represent different connections to places and routes, not a single shared trail.

The Castro of the same name in Romeán is also connected to a route: it can be reached via a side trail. This access differs from the location of the parish church of Santa María on the Camino Primitivo. For your trip planning, you can choose between a church on the Camino, a church highlighted for hikers on the PR-G 139, and a Castro reached via a side trail.

Forest and river landscapes

The Carballido forest lies within the municipalities of A Fonsagrada and Ribeira de Piquín. There are reports of occasional brown bear sightings there. This makes the bear a possible, but not reliably predictable, nature-watching subject. Of the many tributaries of the Rodil, the Veiga de Logares is the most important. Together with the wooded valley along the PR-G 139, this connection to the river offers another perspective on the natural features of the trip.

If you are sorting out your interests, you can focus on different things: the PR-G 139, with its downhill route and connections to the church and yew trees; churches, each with its own connections to places and routes; or the landscape features around Carballido and the Veiga de Logares. This lets you explore destinations for heritage, hiking and nature without combining the different route connections into a single tour.
